About Plain Text Feedback (Post 1, Comment any 3)

The giant smiley faces and golden trophy awards are well-meaning tributes, but I thought it was time for a group that went back to basics: comments in good old-fashioned plain text.

But don't hesitate to click the little pink "fave" star ... B-)

You MUST copy and paste the following (between the lines) with your comment:

===============================================================
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/plaintextfeedback/">Plain Text Feedback</a> (what a concept)
===============================================================

which will look like this:

INVITATION:
Copy and Paste the following as a comment on photos NOT currently in the pool, to INVITE them to join and post here:

===============================================================
Your terrific photo deserves real, meaningful commentary, not just a collection of well-meaning colourful icons. For real, friendly feedback in good old-fashioned plain text, please post this photo to...

RULES

Step 1. Post ONE (1) Photo to the Pool
Step 2. Select any THREE (3) photos to comment on. Try to stay on the first few pages of the pool. Fave freely !!
Step 3. There is no step 3.

Comments:

Meaningful, constructive, non-trivial comments are expected. In plain text, of course... B-)

Really say something, about the subject, the technicals, or just what it reminds you of. If you hate a shot, but have constructive ideas to improve the shot, share your thoughts !!

Select ANY THREE (3) photos to the right of yours at the time of your submission.

Consequences:

We now have a tool that can scan the group for compliance with the simple requirement of commenting on any three photos. The tool is code-named "The Donald" and has been successfully tested in Global Village 2 and elsewhere. If The Donald does not find three comments from you in the first few pages after your post, you will be fired.

Talk to each other !!!
